Canada plans reduction in greenhouse-gas emissions.Discusses an October, 2000 announcement by the Canadian government that the country will cut its greenhouse gas emissions. Description of the plan, which will bring the country one-third of the way towards the target agreed upon at a 1990 climate...
greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canadian agroforestry systems, we conducted a laboratory incubation study to assess N2O, CO2 and CH4 emissions from soils in response to land use (forestland vs. cropland) and agroforestry system type (hedgerow vs. shelterbelt) in central Alberta, Canada. Emissi...
CanadaGreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are currently at the crux of political, environmental, technological, and cultural discussions due to climate change. A drastic reduction of GHG emissions is needed in order to mitigate potentially catastrophic climate change impacts. Thus, thoroughly understanding ...

In 2007, the Government of Canada announced its medium- and long-term greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction plan entitled Turning the Corner, proposed emission cuts of 20% below 2006 levels by 2020 and 60–70% below 2006 levels by 2050. A report from a Canadian government advisory organiza...
With Quebec City (Canada) as a case study, it combines an origin- destination (OD) survey, population census data and land use records for 2006 and rests on a series of structural equations models developed at the grid cell level (3,892 cells), with the latter testing for both direct ...
Canada's largest greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters are industrial companies, responsible for over 60 percent of Canada's total emissions. It is of major public interest to examine how they are responding to that responsibility on a company-specific basis. We have therefore extracted company-specific ...
This is about six percent of the Canadian total GHG emissions from crop production. On a per hectare basis, irrigated crop production emits almost 6.5 times the GHGs of dryland crop production in western Canada, and four times the GHGs in eastern Canada. When factoring in physical productivity,...
